An explanation. ....

In case anyone is wondering why my recent post are so mixed, and some from dates long passed. I found a load of entries that weren't posted on the blog, they'd just been saved - waiting. So I unwaited them :-)

Going up ....

This contraption is the Big Shute boat lift on the Trent Severn waterway in Ontario. It can handle up to six boats (on webbing cradles) and transport them up an incline railway, over a road, and into another lake over 50 feet higher than the lower lake. 
We went on it in my son in law's boat. Amazing!!

Southampton, Ontario. One of our favourite places ....

The boardwalk is for disabled access. It starts from the street turn around area - by the flag - and runs the full length of the beach.

There are caterpillars and there are CATERPILLARS . ...

This guy just loved my tomato plants - didn't want to let them go.

Port Ryerse, Ontario. A very pretty spot ...


Pity the beach is private , but the village streets are beautiful.
